Abstract
According to example embodiments, a method of driving a power switch device includes applying a first voltage to a gate electrode of the power switch device, and applying a drive voltage to the gate electrode of the power switch device after applying the first voltage to the gate electrode of the power switch device. The first voltage is higher than the drive voltage of the power switch device in a turn-on state.
